  • The Photo in the Garage Window That Nobody Told Her About

    The Photo in the Garage Window That Nobody Told Her About
    Oct 12 2026
    The Photo in the Garage Window That Nobody Told Her About

    A photograph taped to a garage window and a Missing Child flyer dated February 14, 1988 sat unseen for decades - the boy in the portrait was moved that night and later adopted under a different name. Who kept the secret, and why did Patricia never tell her own daughter Sharon about Daniel Croft?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline found in Patricia Gallagher’s notebook, the stack of letters and the missing-child flyer left in the Dellwood Road garage, and the chain of events that moved an eight-year-old from Harwick to Renford and into adoption - can the pieces in the garage finally answer what Patricia chose to hide?

    Person: Patricia Gallagher (later Patricia Bishop)
    Person: Sharon Bishop
    Person: Daniel Croft (later Daniel Alderman)
    Date: February 14, 1988
    Location: Dellwood Road, outside Harwick

    - On March 5, 2019 at 9:40 a.m., Amanda McCarthy parked at the end of Dellwood Road and found a school portrait taped to the inside garage window.
    - The Missing Child flyer in the window is dated February 14, 1988 and marked the boy as age eight.
    - Patricia filed a missing child report the morning after she brought Daniel to the Gallagher property, listing him as Daniel Croft, age eight.
    - By June 1989 Patricia received a letter from the boy in Renford saying he was fine and that he missed the cat; letters continued for years.
    - Daniel Croft was legally adopted in 1990 by the Alderman family, took the name Daniel Alderman, and by 2017 uploaded his DNA to a consumer genealogy database.

  • The Locket That Rewrote a Family: Secret Mother, Hidden Child

    The Locket That Rewrote a Family: Secret Mother, Hidden Child
    Oct 11 2026
    The Locket That Rewrote a Family: Secret Mother, Hidden Child

    A worn sterling silver locket bought at a pawnshop in Dellard unlocked a sixty-three-year secret: inside, a photograph of Norma Holmes holding an infant and an inscription reading "For Lily. So she remembers." Who wrote that note, and why was Norma's image tucked into a shoebox that belonged to a man who never remarried?

    In this episode, we follow the chain of people and objects that connect a pawnshop, a storage unit and a three-page letter found in a box - tracing how a single call to a niece set off DNA tests, family searches and the discovery of a buried story. How did a locket, a shoebox and an 81-year-old trucker’s files become the threads that pull two families together?

    Person: Glenn Holmes
    Person: Gina Perry
    Person: Bev Ostrander
    Person: Pete Ostrander
    Date: February 2019

    - The locket was placed on the pawnshop counter by Bev Ostrander on a Tuesday in February 2019.
    - Glenn Holmes was 53 years old and had run the pawnshop for 11 years when he found the locket.
    - Bev Ostrander was 58 and had brought the locket from her late father Pete Ostrander’s belongings.
    - Within six weeks of the locket arriving, a consumer DNA test showed Bev and Glenn shared 23% of their genetic material.
    - The shoebox that held the locket also contained a three-page handwritten letter found eight weeks after the locket surfaced.

  • The Paper on the Mailbox That Revealed a Sister's Secret

    The Paper on the Mailbox That Revealed a Sister's Secret
    Oct 10 2026
    The Paper on the Mailbox That Revealed a Sister's Secret

    A single hospital intake sheet frozen to a mailbox in eleven-degree weather exposed a blue-ballpoint note: B-negative - a blood type that did not fit the family story and pulled apart fifty-one years of silence. How can one lost page force a sister to rethink every private assumption she has lived with?

    In this episode, we follow how a morning delivery, a barnacled piece of paper, and quiet reckoning upend a family’s tidy records; listen to what Erin Carter discovers and the question that refuses to let her rest: who kept this secret, and why?

    Person: Erin Carter
    Person: Wendy Gray
    Date: January 18, 2022
    Location: 44 Aldercroft Drive, Varnell, Ohio
    Event: Hospital admission paperwork found on mailbox

    - The temperature was eleven degrees the night the paper bonded to the metal mailbox post.
    - Pamela Bowers, age 16, found and placed the loose intake form on top of the morning paper.
    - The intake form bore Wendy Gray’s name and had "B-negative" written in the blood type box in blue ballpoint.
    - Erin Carter had lived at 44 Aldercroft Drive for nineteen years and is 54 years old.
    - Erin’s consumer ancestry kit health panel from spring 2021 had estimated her blood type as O-positive.
